Digg Reader has finally arrived for Android users with  new features and scope to add more in the future.

Digg, the Betaworks sponsored social news service and  a popular RSS reader, has finally expanded to the Android platform. The news aggregator has been available on iOS  for quite some time, but Android users were left with no option but to find other alternatives for Google Reader. That void is now filled as Digg Reader for Android is available for download and it's free.

 "Like the web version of Digg, the Android app includes up-to-the-minute stories from the Digg homepage as well as Digg Reader, all optimized for your Android device," the company said in a blog post, Thursday.

Digg brings the most interesting, trending and most-talked-about stories in one place for its users. A team of Digg editors filters various articles, blogs, magazines, status updates, photos and videos and displays the best story pieces in one place. It is fast and features a mature interface for seamless reading experience.

Digg has included support for Instapaper, a bookmarking service bought by Digg's parent company Betaworks a few months ago along with Pocket and Readability. Sharing information on social media has become the most prominent part of any service, so Digg has also integrated the feature to share anything you read on Facebook, Tumblr, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn and more. Users can log in to Digg Reader with a Google, Twitter or a Facebook account, but can access the basic features without the need to log in. The app allows users to search and add news feeds into folders that can be created, organized and deleted at any time.

The Android version of the app is build closely with the likes of iOS app. But since it is the first Android application, there is scope for a lot of improvement. The company is aware of what the app lacks and is working toward it. Some important features such as "Show Only Unread Items" view, text size, background updating and display mode options are currently missing, but "you'll see those added shortly, along with other new and bewitching features," Digg said in its blog.
